Fucking hell....
Jan. 12th, 2005 11:11 amIt turns out, after I wandered (clothed) into the kitchen, that the tree-surgeons were in our garden. Heart-pounding, I nipped out to ask what the fuck was going on. Only, a little more politely than that, as they had chain-saws.
Turns out that the next door neighbours complained to the landlord about an over-hanging tree, so apparently the surgeons were at the house assessing it yesterday (which I missed as I was out all day) and that the letting agents should have called us to let us know it was happening. Which they haven't. I'm debating whether or not to call and complain about finding strange men in the back garden.
On the plus side, they're taking away their branches and it looks like they might even be going to trim the shrubbery too, which would be very nice.

Get the guy to carve in some nice ducks or something into your shrubbery?

He'll have me washing the windows before long. I cannot wait till we own property :( I don't think they did trim the shrubbery but the garden looks tons brighter without the tree which appears to have been removed completely.
